Surgeon Testimonial

Ki Hyun Oh M.D.
The one thing I would say about Dr. Oh is that he's not there to be your friend. However, he's done about twenty billion of these surgeries and you couldn't really ask for a more skilled surgeon. My personal opinion is that if you require friendly banter or amiable interaction and great bedside manner, look elsewhere. If you're looking for a smart doctor with a low rate of complications, Dr. Oh might be a good surgeon for you.

Emotions 3
Things kinda caught up with me again soon after my last post. Mainly I just got really frustrated because I couldn't even take a drink of water without it hurting. I was taking the smallest sips I could manage, not swallowing air, and I tried every temperature I could think of, and still every time I took a drink, it would feel like I was trying to swallow an egg. Not pleasant. I wound up doing a few different things to fix it, and I don't know what did it, but it was either the water with lime Dr. Oh suggested or the switch from Percoset to Vicodin or it was just one of those things that took time.

In any case, I wound up crying uncontrollably, which is really weird for me. It was more of a case of my emotions getting away from me than it was anything indicating the severity of the pain I was in. It wasn't THAT bad, I just got upset and that led everyone to think I was in horrible pain.

Anywho, I've discovered the majesty of SF popsicles (I resisted them before since I don't really like cold stuff much but hey, you make sacrifices :D) and like I said, Vicodin > Percoset. I can't really shake the urge to eat though. I really want to eat, not gonna lie. I have the randomest cravings. (Cucumbers? Weird.) I can't wait to just have a bite of something. Srsly.

And I'm planning to weigh today or tomorrow. Maybe it's a bit early but I'd like to see something to indicate that this is worth it.
